This project, funded by SNV, aims to eliminate hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition by implementing nutrition-sensitive interventions at the community level. The initiative focuses on improving dietary practices, enhancing access to nutritious foods, and educating caregivers—particularly mothers—on child nutrition, feeding practices, and overall health.
Through targeted community education, behavior change communication, and support for nutrition-focused activities, the project strengthened local capacity to address malnutrition sustainably. As a result, it achieved a significant impact, with a 50% reduction in malnutrition among children under five across 12 communities in the project districts. This outcome reflects improved child health, better household nutrition practices, and increased awareness of the importance of balanced diets and proper care.
